Mishka

Biography

Mishka Frith, 1974, Bermuda. The singer enjoyed a hedonistic lifestyle having spent his childhood on his parents yacht sailing around the Caribbean. His initial education was on board the boat, although at the age of 15 he completed his education in Canada. While he was subjected to secondary education Frith joined a high school band where he developed his songwriting skills. On completing his education he could not resist the lure of the North Atlantic Ocean and returned to Bermuda. In 1991 and 1992 he represented his country in the windsurfing world championships and stated that he could windsurf good, but did not know about racing tactics. Influenced by his sister, singer Heather Nova, he returned to his musical career. Although Mishka attributed the life on the ocean waves as his main influence, there was also a notable nod to the music of Bob Marley.
